Unhappy More GE woes

Apparently two GE90 operators (SV and AF)suffered IFSDs last week due to hp compressor stage 4 toggle seals letting go which results in the failure of the compressor downstream, this follows on from another operator (CO) who suffered a similar failure a couple of months ago. A fleet wide check has resulted in a number of unscheduled removals.
